ROCKFORD, Ill. -- The Rockford University baseball program has earned another award as senior utility player Zach Fabis was named Third Team All-America by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) at the Opening Ceremony of the NCAA Division III College World Series on Thursday night. This is Fabis' first All-America selection of his career in addition to being voted First Team All-NACC, First Team All-Region (ABCA), and Third Team All-Region (D3baseball.com) this season. 

Zach Fabis ended his senior season playing his best ball of his four-year career. Offensively he recorded a .318 batting average with 41 hits and 17 RBIs. He also had seven doubles, one triple, one home run, and drew nine walks. On the mound, Fabis was dominant on the year and ranked in the top 20 in the NACC in five statistical categories, and in the top 10 in four. He placed fifth in the conference in ERA (2.63), tied for second in wins (8-0) going undefeated on the hill, fourth in fewest hits allowed (43), 21st in strikeouts (44), and fourth in batting average against (.224). His eight wins on the year tied a program record for wins in a single season. Fabis also had a complete-game shutout (March 21 vs. Marian) where he allowed just four hits while striking out 10 batters, in a week where he won NACC Pitcher of the Week. Nationally, Fabis tied for 22nd in wins on the mound. 

Rockford University ended the season with a 24-15 overall record, including a 13-11 mark in NACC play. The Regents finished in sixth place in the conference to earn their third-straight trip, and 11th overall berth to the NACC Tournament.
